We’ve Decided To Sell Drift Away

Yep.  No joke.  I’m as serious as a heart attack.Pam and I talked long and hard about it and we both came to the same conclusions.  Leaving Drift Away here in Georgia for eight months at a time while we’re in upstate New York doesn’t mak…

I’m Gettin’ Nuttin’ For Christmas

Christmas is only six days away.  It doesn’t feel like Christmas here in Georgia.  Last year, we were in Annapolis and it was cold and blustery.  While we didn’t have snow, it sure felt like Christmas.  Here, it’s been in the 60s an…

Friends

What If You Have Two Dreams?

Warning.  This is a long one, and profound.  I usually try not to get that serious on this blog, but this is a good one.  If you’ve come here while you have a few minutes to kill at work, you might want to come back later.  But if y…

Homesteading in Bleecker

Pam and I love our boat, and we really enjoy cruising and living aboard.  But when we returned to NY last summer, we both realized how much we miss upstate; the mountains, the forests, and even the climate.  We had an opportunity to buy ten a…

I Gave Away My Daughter

What a beautiful wedding.  The Lilac Inn in Brandon Vermont is a perfect place for weddings. We posed for family photos at 3 PM, and then the wedding was at 4.  I know, you all want to know if I cried.  I’m not telling.The bride was beau…
